A typical battery starts to get a bit crap after a year or so, so that  
you need to carry a spare. After 3 years, you need to carry a power  
adapter because it's completely unusable.

With the apple philosophy, it's a case of lumping it after a year and  
buying a new one in two years.

How is that a feature?
